“Recent past lives prepared and primed me to seek my current spiritual path at such a young age.” – Michael Goddart
A Life Dedicated to Self-Realisation
His most recent book, The Contentment Dividend: Meditations for Realising Your True Self, continues his mission of guiding readers toward higher consciousness. Known for earlier works such as A New Now and In Search of Lost Lives, Michael’s writings combine practical wisdom with profound spiritual truths. His memoir recounting 88 vivid past lives offers a rare exploration of the soul’s evolution.
The Roots of a Spiritual Path
Reflecting on what inspired his journey, Michael explains that his past lives prepared him for seeking truth. Encounters with monks, priests, and saints across centuries of incarnations shaped his present devotion to meditation and realisation of higher consciousness.
Lessons from Travel and Teachers
Having travelled to more than fifty countries, Michael affirms that “we are all one” and that love unites humanity. His time with spiritual teachers in India reinforced the lesson that human life is the most precious gift, one meant for realising self and God.
Meditation and Misconceptions
Michael emphasises that meditation is often misunderstood. Far from being just relaxation, it is a gateway to joy and higher states of awareness, especially when guided by a living teacher of divine realisation.
Discovering Past Lives
His book In Search of Lost Lives highlights how understanding reincarnation helps explain current relationships, emotions, and spiritual direction. By recognising patterns across lifetimes, readers can uncover both evolution and setbacks in their spiritual growth.
The Supreme Role of Love
For Michael, love is central to enlightenment: “Our essence is love. That is who we truly are.” He describes the soul’s journey as one of shedding ego and returning to LoveSource—the eternal One.
Guidance for Aspiring Authors
To writers drawn to spirituality, Michael advises: seek truth, meditate, and write daily. He urges aspiring authors to embrace intuition, document their awakening, and commit to their own path of self-realisation.
